its leaking from this valve...only not from the front...from where it presses into the horn. i may have to press it back out and put some sealer on it.
it is seaping from out the back side where it is circled and pooling up around that rubber nipple.
i checked my float level in the front by that spot through the inspection screw...it was fine, gas did not pour out when i took the screw out and i could see the float and gas level right at the bottom of the screw hole.
if that doen't work i'll use the top from my old carb...it doesn't even have this valve.
from what i can find on the net...its only for helping really hot starting and hot idling.
the other air horn i have is identical except this valve isn't there and nobody will see the top of the carb when the breather is on anyways.
